Connected Devices/Projects/SensorWeb

This experiment has concluded. We have retained the content on this page so others can take advantage of these learnings. For the latest on what Mozilla is doing, visit www.mozilla.org.

Project SensorWeb is a project born out of Mozilla from a lean team with a powerful mission. Its vision is to equip organizations and individuals with contextual information about their connected world that empowers them to make informed choices about policy and daily life.

The project aims to work with a community of like-minded people to set up a sensor network to gather real-time, hyperlocal insights on air quality to help improve the quality of life of people who suffer from asthma and allergies or are concerned about their and their family’s health.

In the future, SensorWeb can be applied to solve other environmental problems the world is facing today. We believe that with projects like SensorWeb, Mozilla can continue to empower people by growing a community to participate in this movement, bringing them a high-resolution view of our environment, and demanding the right policy based on data.
